The group, "Friends For Our Riverfront", needs to be corrected or changed to " Friends For Continued ".

I live downtown and if this is the same group that has been around the last 35-40 yrs or so then why have they allowed the ugly concrete garages that are currently front row on our riverside? I have not seen this group like anything that has been proposed on the riverfront! Do they admire the weeds on the cobblestones or the mold infested concrete garages that THEY allowed to be built?

This group seems to have the mindset that the riverfront is to remain bland with zero imaginative development allowed unless it goes backwards to a "Mark Twain" willow tree and mud embankment situation. Why do other cities like St Louis and New Orleans allow the exact type of development that the RDC desires but Friends of Our Riverfront continue to boycott and hold the developers to a higher standard that they themselves have not be held accountable for?
